Today is the link question that was going to happen yesterday, but slightly scaled down due to Antharro's infernal 75 tube stations picture (I'm up to 64 now). So all you have to do is identify these four stations and the link between them. Station A:  (click for a larger version) Station B:  (click for a larger version) Station C:  (click for a larger version) Station D:  (click for a larger version) |

A - My first thought would be Westminster? I do have a second option but I'll wait and see if my first thought which I think it's more likely to be is correct ;D.
C - Shadwell
D - Perhaps Goodge Street?

A, B, C and the inset in B were all identified just leaving D and the link to get. All three attempting today's question get some points too, which is good to see: A - My first thought would be Westminster? I do have a second option but I'll wait and see if my first thought which I think it's more likely to be is correct ;D. No second thoughts necessary, this is Westminster Station A: Westminster - escalators from Jubilee Line viewed from eastbound District Line platform [Chris M] (click for a larger version) Just 5 posts to their name and here they come with a correct answer Station B: Goodge Street - top of emergency stairs [Chris M]  (click for a larger version) inset in b looks like the totem pole in the British Museum Inset B: Haida Totem Pole, British Musuem. [Chris M]  (click for a larger version) This photo was taken in December 2001, at some point in the intervening years the totem pole has moved from this stairwell to the Great Court. A museum in Toronto apparently also had a totem poll in a similar position, but whether it is still there I don't know - any Torontonians reading this? Another DLR station correctly identified by DeepLevel: Station C: Shadwell (DLR) - platform canopy [MRFS] (click for a larger version) Image D is not Goodge Street, as suggested by Deep Level, as that is image B and there are no duplicates today. Here is a clue: Station D:  (click for a larger version) |

Inset B: Haida Totem Pole, British Musuem. [Chris M] (click for a larger version) This photo was taken in December 2001, at some point in the intervening years the totem pole has moved from this stairwell to the Great Court. A museum in Toronto apparently also had a totem poll in a similar position, but whether it is still there I don't know - any Torontonians reading this? I think that is at the Royal Ontario Museum, Toronto, part of which is shown in this video at the 44 second, 1:15 and 2:12 marks |

Nope it's nothing to do with access at all.
